How can a non-swimmer plan an Adrasan boat tour?
A non-swimmer may still enjoy an Adrasan boat tour from the deck, but suitability depends on the assigned vessel, operator rules, sea conditions and the guest's comfort. Before booking, state clearly that you do not swim and ask whether remaining aboard throughout every swim stop is permitted.
Confirm that a correctly sized, serviceable life jacket is available and ask when the crew expects it to be worn. A life jacket or another flotation aid does not teach swimming and does not make unsupervised water entry safe. Never enter the sea simply because other guests do.
What to consider before you choose
Ask about stable shaded seating, railings, steps, toilet access and safe movement while the boat is underway. At stops, learn which areas of the deck remain accessible, whether the crew stays aboard and how the ladder or platform is managed when swimmers return.
Choose the route and boat only after discussing your needs, then recheck wind and sea conditions near departure. Follow the captain's instructions if the route or stops change. Keep essential items secure, wear suitable non-slip footwear and tell the crew immediately if you feel unsafe or unwell.
A note on routes and sea conditions
Published routes are a plan, not a promise. The captain may adjust stops and timing for wind, sea traffic and guest safety.

Frequently asked questions
Clear answers to the questions travellers most often ask before booking.
Can a non-swimmer join an Adrasan boat tour?
Often yes when the operator confirms the boat is suitable and you may remain aboard at swim stops. Disclose swimming ability before booking.
Does a life jacket make swimming safe for a non-swimmer?
No. It is safety equipment, not a substitute for swimming ability or supervision. Follow the crew's instructions and do not enter the water under pressure.
Can I stay on the boat while others swim?
Policies and crew arrangements vary. Confirm this for every planned stop before booking rather than assuming.
